Thinking about traveling after a vein treatment?
Most vein procedures carry very low risk, but long trips and flights increase the chance of blood clots (deep vein thrombosis).
That’s why specialists recommend waiting 3–4 weeks after your varicose vein treatment before flying or taking long-distance travel.
To protect your circulation and vein health, remember to:
• Stay well hydrated
• Wear compression stockings
• Walk frequently
• Avoid tight clothing
Your recovery isn’t just about feeling better: it’s about preventing complications and protecting your long-term vein health.
